Saxon looked calmly at Leonor. He knew there were things she did not wish to tell him.. he had tales which he wanted to keep away from the prying eyes of the world.. tales he could only share with the ocean. "Uhm.. well.. why exactly did you join us..? I mean, It's not every day a swet-looking girl wishes to join us.."

*Wanders back down by the cool waters edge and once again dips her feet in*Maybe just a short swim... It wouldn't hurt anyone right?*Dives in and feels a rock pass by her.She then turns to see where it came from and sees someone on the shore line*Maybe I can go over and talk to them... They look nice enough...*Wanders over to the person*Hello, my name is SSV, who are you?*Holds out her hand*

Kotei kicked randomly at the sand, causing deep scuff indentations in the whiteness, disrupting the peaceful blanket. He looked up at the cliff again, and made up his mind. Why not climb it?
He started at the bottom, yes, a very good place to start, he decided. He started to climb.... up and up.... panting with the effort, crystal beads of salty sweat forming on his forehead. Finally, he made it to the top. Panting, he stuck out his hand to the stranger in front of him.
"Hoi. I'm Kotei..."

Leonor looked down at the ground.
"Well, I was at a bar, and th'captain came up to me. She offered me the job, and well, the rest is history...and what about you?" she asked.

Much farther down the shoreline, Jerrit lands and takes out his easel and fishscale paints. Then, he takes out a sheet of canvas and starts painting Crystal Cove Beach, in all of it's sparkling majestic splender.

*Doesn't want to wait for a reply and sees some one else on the shore line*Well, if you decide you to come and join me later, I'll be here.*V then walked down a little path over grown with shells and seaweed and makes her way to the person on the shore line*Hello, aren't you the man that sold me the magic book?*She looked at what he was painting*Wow, that's very nice...*Begins to sing and then thinks let's see what this one thinks about me...*

Jerrit turned, at first annoyed to have his muse interrupted, then pleased to see it was that girl, V, from the magick shop in La Luna. What were the odds that she could be here at the same time as him? Truthfully, they weren't bad. While overhead, Jerrit had noticed two other famillar faces as well, a pirate man he'd seen in a bar in the Stench, and that odd pirate girl who'd he'd seen in Le-Noir. Jerrit had a word for that: fate. Some may call it coincidence, but too many coincidences equalled something odd with destiny. "Hi. Yes, I just came from there. I'm on my way to Le-Noir next. The painting... well, it isn't done yet. I recently sold an ink sketch of this cove from overhead, so today I'm doing a full-color painting from it on the ground. It's really bea... ti..." suddenly, as the girl statred seeing, Jerrit stopped talking. He wasn't sure why, just something in his mind clicked an told him that he should stop talking. He set down his brush and pallat on a rock. He seemed to be doing this automatically, not in control of his actions. All that was impoartant now... all that was important anytime, anywhere, all that would ever be important was this girl's singing.

*V then stops singing and looks at Jerrit*Ya know, you're kinda cute...*Thinks to herself 'What am I doing?What could this guy possibly see in me...'*Well, I'll let you paint now if that's what you want...*Starts to walk down the beach watching her feet make soft impressions where she walks, she then picks up a shell and places it in her hair*

As V stopped singing, Jerrit got his mind back, but all too late. she was already gone. "Bye!" he called out, hoping she heard him. He sat back for a moment. She was cute... but this was folly, what could she see in him? He watched her walk away for a while, and then quietly resumed painting. After a while, though he got tired of the picture. #"I'll finish it later,"# he mentally promised himself. He had committed the scene to memory. He took out a fresh canvas and began to paint a picture of V, an almost wistful look on his face.

*V jumps into a wave and begins to swim*Bye Jerrit!she calls after she is half way out.*She then dives under so she can find a large moon snail shell and comes back.She places it on a rock and watches Jerrit paint though she can't tell what he's painting*

Jerrit quickly finished the painting, working faster than ever before. #"Funny, I didn't know I could finish this quickly with any painting. Does look half bad, either... but it's not a fraction as beautiful as she is..."# He mentally shook himself. #"Jerrit, you're starting to sound like you're in..."# Jerrit somehow couldn't bring himself to admit that, even to himself. He smiled at the painting, thinking up a conversation with V he'd never really have the courage to start. He sighed. "There's something missing," he said aloud. He sat back and tried to think of what he hadn't put on the painting. Finally, he took red paint and wrote, to the left of the picture, 'To V'. He set the painting on the rock face, arranging the nearby landscape into somewhat of a cave, and finally cast some water resistant spells to make a servicable roof for the cave. That should protect long enough for... whatever. Smiling to himself, he spread his wings, and flew off in the direction of Le-Noir.

*V watches him fly off and runs into the cave to see what he had left or forgotten*Wow!It's me...*V starts to think to herself 'Does this mean he feels the same way about me?'*
